Great concert venue at the heart of Amsterdam. Entry was quick and efficient, lockers are easy to get via QR code but only M size so it barely could store 2 winter jackets with much effort. On the way out it's a nightmare to access them and there's not much space for people to walk through. The sound system is good but the day we went it was poorly configured. The stage is not too high so if you are short it's better to be in the front, the steps on the sides or in the galleries upstairs. Bars are on the back and sides, none outside, so if the house is full the access to them and back to your place is terrible, I'd recommend to take one trip with enough beer to stay on your position. The galleries have stairs in the back and a smart stair in the front that give a nice side view as well.

Great smaller venue for concerts. We went there last weekend for porter robinson and got front row view, the vip was really worth it.

Good locker system, but works with credit card. If you dont have it, you can ask the staff at the helpdesk to rent a locker. Great staff help

A great venue, but can be a little cramped with more popular artists. There is a single large standing area with a standing balcony above it and two bars.

Great location, really central and the space offers really interesting international small artists. The venue air system was great, even though there were many people, the temperature was always on point, not too cold neither too hot. I really liked the place, feels super cosy, the light system there is amazing as well!
